VDW, female multistarrer on non-holiday, got an opening of 20cr. Toh how is it farfetched to say Akshay would've added 7-8 cr more with the movie?

VDW ne kaunse planet mai 20 crores ki opening do thi be.

But behan you gave a wrong info, you increased the opening by almost double. VDW made around 10-11 crores depending on the source. 20 crores kaha se mila. Also VDW aur MM(without Akki) mai kuch samate nahi hai apart from female ensemble cast.

VDW cartered tharkis(the biggest audience base) and the ultra feminists. MM mai dono ke liye kuch nahi tha, rather ek bored hota without any skin show aur dusre offend hote due to all ladies being patriarchal.

Also you Vidya asides, koi bhi naami actress nahi hai. Hai agar yeh film mai, Deepika, Alia, Anushka aur Katrina hoti along with Vudhu mausi, tab hai chance thi ki yeh baadi opening deti aur independence day bhi milta without Akki. Lekin isne toh woh bhi nahI hai.

Hit toh hoti MM no doubt, WOM hit, because subject acchi hai, even if execution faklandu hai, lekin itni baadi opening aur independence day ka date kabhi nahi milta without Akshay.

Also bhakts haven't really liked this movie afaik. Many are angry due to Hindus ko kyu chutiya type dikhaya(Sharman ka character) and why Viddhu Mausi beta left Hinduism.

Definitely credit goes to Akshay for opening and success. He drove people to theatres. He had the star appeal. Those who went to watch the movie went on Akshay's brand value.

Tapsee is a fool to believe otherwise.

if not for Akshay, movie independence day pe release hi nahi hoti lol.

7-10 crores less, you mean with that cast without Akki, this would have opened at 18-21 crores?? Who are you kidding dude.

And yes there are many factors and biggest factors besides Akki were the movie releasing in Independence Day tagged with Rakshabandhan and the ISRO Mars Mission pride factor.

Independence day/Raksha bandhan holiday + nationalism theme were the biggest crowd pullers. That and decent reviews were enough to give an opening of 15-20 crore with any cast. Even without Akshay it would have easily touched 20 cr. No joke.

Woh toh first day ke baad. First day ko sabhi nationalism se peedit dekh chuke the.

Yes even I credited the theme and holiday factor, but the thing you are not getting is, without Akshay movie ko yeh release date nahi milti aur Sahoo bhi postponed nahi hota.

Movies don't open big without popular names, and this movie has only one popular name, Vidya, who isn't at her popularity peak either. Tapsee ka naam bhi nahi pata masses ko aur Sona toh dubhi chuki hai.

How come Akshay couldn't stop other movies from clashing with his movies before? Last year during the same independence day weekend, John clashed his film with Akshay. Saaho moved probably because a solo release date was available.

I agree that if not for Akshay or any major male star the film wouldn't have had enough bargaining power to have a solo release on independence day - but that's because of the unfortunate way male stars hijack major dates - that's a topic for another day

My point was, all things being kept same and removing Akshay, the film would still have had an easy chance of a 20-22 cr opening. Essentially it would have made little difference to the audience even if Akshay were not there.
